I was watching some of Pulp Fiction the other night, and it's so apparent the decline in Tarantino's work, he doesn't write characters like Vega, Jules, Mia, Marsellis anymore, who are layered, and real, while also, funny, violent, charming, murderous. He lost some of this around Death Proof. Regardless, I will see this in July, and it's always fun to see new Tarantino, though The Hateful 8 was a chore to sit through,

Can careless the date it comes out. The topic is what matters. These era based looks at old Hollywood are prime jacking material to these old cacs that vote for the Oscars. I expect my eyeballs to witness trash when it comes out only to find it sweeping the award season as per usual.

His long time editor died. Which is why his last couple movies have been bloated messes. There were great scenes in "Django" and "The Hateful 8" but both were too damn long and there were a ton of scenes that dragged on for no reason. I need to know the run time for this before I can even get excited.

" It’s Tarantino’s best film since Kill Bill, perhaps even since Pulp Fiction."

Inglorious b*stards card game/shootout was classic Tarantino. He does need a new editor. I must admit this has me curious
